Here is the synopsis for Heels and Sneakers:

The drama
series revolves around Pinto who traveled to Jamaica and got
involved in drugs so had to run back home to seek refuge, and the
only work he could do here is to sell vegetables to homes and
restaurants; something he does riding a bicycle. This makes him
well known in the community and as such prone to the repudiation
from society because of his Rastafarian lifestyle. Apart from being
into the vegetable business, Pinto, the lead character, also does
music and hopes to climb back the ladder of success not through
drug deals but through music.

“The series also focuses on Nana, Trish and Celine, independent women of the working
class in society who find one thing in common; their inability to
find a life partner. Their lives empathize with the working class
women who in spite of their glamour and accomplishments cannot find
husbands and so fall in the hands of wrong suitors, who either dupe
them or meddle with their hearts. Celine who is an intelligent
lecturer in a renowned university falls in love with one of her
good looking male students which leads into blackmails and finally
to her resignation. Nana, who is very choosy when it comes to
taking a life partner, is lured by Kojo but he turns out to be a
fraudster.

 In the typical strict Christian home of the Manfords, we find out that the eldest,
Margaret lives a two-faced life; one being the good and respectful
Christian girl at home and the other being the wild and adventurous
spoilt brat outside the home. Comedy
is the jelly of every drama and to spice things up, there are
characters like Kevin and Jay whose mere utterances can rip the
ribs apart. Jay is a fante guy who swims better when flowing in
fante but suffocates to death when pushed in a typical English
position
.”

The actress shared the trailer of “Heels and
Sneakers” on her YouTube channel in April, 2016.
